Couple things to make sure of:

1) You have to make sure your cdrom drive is recognized in winecfg before you
run the installer, or it won't work.
2) This is the process you *have* to use in order for it to work:

$ cd /media/cdrom
$ wine setup.exe &
(asks for cd 2)
$ cd ..
$ wine eject
(if wine eject doesn't eject the cd, do the next step)
$ eject
(insert the new cd)
(if you don't have hal setup:)
$ winecfg -> setup cdrom drive again

bash holds a fd on the cdrom if your cwd is /media/cdrom, which will keep you
from being able to eject...that's a bash bug though.  Honestly, this bug is
fixed...I've installed HL2 about 10 times now, so if you have a problem with the
install process, ask about it on wine-users.
